Bit-perfect playback, click noise problem

2010-11-23 13:37:41

Hi all, I've got a problem a little problem I hope you can help me out with 

Whenever I use any kind of bit perfect plugin for FB2K there's a clicking noise when a "sound session" outside foobar starts, or ends. For an example if I play something in foobar with WASAPI and then go into onemorelevel.com and start a flash game, the point it starts, there's a loud click in my headphones. The exact same happens again when I either close the window or goes to another page. There is no problem when I use normal playback, but happens both with WASAPI and kernel streaming...

The click noise also occur if I turn the volume up or down of the extra sound device both the WASAPI and kernel stream plugin create.

My soundcard is the ASUS Xonar Essence STX and headphones are Sennheiser HD650, if that matters  (OS = W7 64-bit)
Thanks in advance

UPDATE: I just encountered it to happen without WASAPI or any other bit-perfect plugin enabled. With standard output selcted, I started skype and the click noise came again and also when I closed skype. Also, at the moment I started skype, two extra sound devices appeared in my volume dialog, and they would only disappear if I closed foobar. Both new sound devices was named something with Sonar Essence, so I guess it's my sound card or its drivers? 
(The click came also if I tried to adjust the volume of these two new devices)

SOLVED:
Finally, I managed to fix it!
When those two extra sound devices showed up in the volume setting, I found out I could click their icons and disable them. Now there's no clicks at all
